Re: THEE NYG SWAG THREAD

Those early career champion Giants all went through this. Manning
with the interceptions. Jacobs with his demotion and weird behavior
issues. Umenyiora with his contract dispute and ugly public feud with GM
Jerry Reese. And Tuck, this year, with his injuries. Each of those
players has emerged from his mid-career adversity better for the
experience. Manning led the way, playing brilliantly from the start of
this season. But the light has gone on for the others at the right time.

<font color="#0000FF">Jacobs is running as hard as in the old days</font>, no matter what Jerry
Rice thinks. Umenyiora has shoved the contract stuff to the back burner
and is focused on knocking down quarterbacks again. And Tuck? Well,
yeah, the nagging injuries are still there. He's still in more pain than
he'd like to be, and it's still keeping him from doing everything he'd
like to be doing on the field. But this year, at a still-young 28, Tuck
has learned that that's OK.

"My teammates know where my heart is," Tuck said. "My coaches know
where my heart is. And I just came to the realization that I'm not going
to be healthy this year. I'm not going to put up the stats that I've
put up. But that doesn't mean that I can't help this football team win
games. And at the end of the day, that's the goal."

I wonder why people continue to write and say stuff like this when Kase and MH think nothing ever changed?

Significance of both games were big. GB-we knocked out #1 seeded playoff team.

NE-we handed Pat's a loss for first time in years in their own stadium. Good choices...I'd get inscriptions too. I like both, but would opt for Rodger's.

[/quote]I see you found the Rice interview:

“I like Ahmad Bradshaw, I like Brandon Jacobs,” Rice told ESPN. “But I feel like Brandon Jacobs is a little soft. He can’t get away from a defender. The guy is 265, and it upsets me when I see him get tackled by a guy that’s like 190 or 200 pounds.”

[quote user="bigblue4417"]players in the Giants' locker room said they weren't concerned that
he would have to miss any more time or Sunday's NFC Championship Game
against the 49ers in San Francisco.

"Are you kidding me? He's Eli Manning," defensive lineman Dave Tollefson
said Wednesday. "They probably have some kind of special virus-killing
medicine that only Eli Manning can use. I'd be out for two weeks; he'll
be good [Thursday]."</p>[/quote]lol i was going to post that. he practiced today so hes probably right.

lol, people at my job are so easily entertained, it's ridiculous. This Saturday is the night of our big "Winter Gala", which we do every winter....or as I like to call it: "an excuse to hang out with some friends,get blackout drunk and take home some random chick here who i'll most likely awkwardly work with later"...

So this morning before a short meeting in our conference room, our supervisor asks "are you flasking it to the Gala this weekend, JP?"
and i responded with "uhh...yea....suits have what? 5 pockets?"</P>

and apparently that was the funniest thing ever, because the room erupted with laughter.
Then after the meeting:
"JP, you bringing a hott date this year?"

"Do you bring sand to the beach??"</P>

more laughter.

It's like these people dont watch tv or movies...or god forbid, know what the internet is...lol</P>
